After the recent update to 2.3.4, my phone immeditately said I was 'Low on space'. After deleting a ton of apps, all my pictures, and clearing the history, it still says it is low. But, my internal storage is at 136mb used, 612mb free. To me, that is not that low...

The last thing I want to do is factory reset, because unfortunately I live off my phone for work and have made many changes since to my calendar and contacts (which won't sync)...

Please help!! How low does the used need to be in order to get rid of the 'Low on space' so my phone will sync?!

Love2, I have the same exact thing going on on my phone. I too have a clear indication from apps that i have plenty of available space. Also, I have looked at the storage through my pc (right click and properties.)

There is something going on and possibly with the new update. I bet we see this issue pop up elsewhere.

Same here. I have the 2.3.4 update. Google+ came in again and put my app space over 400MB and I got "low on space". Still had 300MB+ space left. Gmail stopped syncing. Removed some apps to get below 400MB and the message went away and "poof" I received my gmail!

I'm going to jump on this list as well. Updated to 2.3.4 and shortly started getting the "Low on space" message, rendering my gmail account useless. I got the message to go away one time by uninstalling a few apps, but it is back. Anyone have a good fix for this yet?

Don't want to get in the habit of replying to my own posts, but I just "Clear data" for my Gmail app and the Low on space message went away, and I my Gmail recieved my recent messages... Maybe a short term work around till they fix the root cause.

Can one of you with the low space error try flashing this hotfix from HTC? It resolves the messaging / email / voice mail errors, but I did a factory reset on my wifes phone before the hotfix file, so Im not sure if it works for low space too.

Make sure you have allowed "Unknown sources" Form the home screen, menu > settings > applications > check unknown sources.
Download the file and transfer to your sd card.
Using a file manager (astro file manager is free and works well), install the file.
Open the app.
